Tune: | [When we walk with the Lord] |
Composer: | Daniel B. Towner, 1850-1919 |
1 When we walk with the Lord,
In the light of His Word,
What a glory He sheds on our way!
While we do His good will
He abides with us still,
And with all who will trust and obey.
Chorus:
Trust and obey -
for there's no other way
To be happy in Jesus,
But to trust and obey.
2 Not a shadow can rise,
Not a cloud in the skies,
But His smile quickly drives it away;
Not a doubt nor a fear,
Not a sigh nor a tear,
Can abide while we trust and obey. [Chorus]
3 Not a burden we bear,
Not a sorrow we share,
But our toil He doth richly repay;
Not a grief nor a loss,
Not a frown nor a cross,
But is blest if we trust and obey. [Chorus]
4 But we never can prove
The delights of His love,
Until all on the altar we lay;
For the favor He shows,
And the joy He bestows,
Are for them who will trust and obey. [Chorus]
5 Then in fellowship sweet
We will sit at His feet,
Or we'll walk by His side in the way;
What He says we sill do,
Where He sends we sill go -
Never fear, only trust and obey. [Chorus]
